A learned but self-anointed numismatic sifu has declared that the fresh-from-the-oven RM20 ZC note with 3 Zeroes is indeed the Real McCoy as far as Rarity is concerned & as far as the recent batch of Replacements is concerned, but Rarity in the numismatic realm comes in many variations, cos, it could R,RR,RRR,RRRR or even RRRRR, eh bien, si tu comprends ce que je veux dire, mon vieux...
But of course, just like your bank accounts, the more zeroes one gets for such Replacements, that so much is better as it's a contest in fact for the total number of zeroes being present being the pivotal thing, more zeroes the merrier and more banknotes to be sent to PMG or even the newly launched CMC Grading Institution headquartered in Taiwan, and more dough being spent on grading fees and of cos, in the high freaking hopes of getting superlative grades like PMG 68, or even 69 or even the farkingly high to reach PMG 70 grade.....
And of cos, if one gets PMG 70, one can gloat & scream & shout as that could be the only solitary piece of such perfect-10 grade in this region and apparently, according to a very unreliable numismatic backroom chatter, a Sifu is willing to pay 10 Thousand Yankee Dollars for a note from Malaysia that has been graded PMG 70, no questions asked, regardless if the note is rare or half-rare or totally not rare; important criterion is it MUST be graded PMG 70 as PMG 70 is very, very rare, perhaps, as rare as a Rarity of RRRRR.
Actually, the learned sifu who said this ZD Replacement is a rare issue & will be the future's bright shining star has got his marbles all mixed-up as this ZD is not a rare note after all.
But it was rare for 2 weeks & that's what matters as after all, being at the top of the charts for 2 weeks is better than not at all. It's just like being the World NO.1 player for such & such a sports & thereafter slide all the way down as there's always cause to gloat about when you're at NO.1, regardless whether you stayed there for say a day or a week. Same thing when you are at the NO.1 position at the Billboards's Top 100 for just a week; a week is better than no week and above all, how many clowns out there enjoy the bragging rights for 1 freaking week!
Too many sifus nowadays & for him/them to err is perfectly human and let's achieve divinity by forgiving him/her/them, ok? Sometimes, the sifu's crystal ball also can malfunction as it does need servicing and calibration at times as do any mortal creations would need.
According to the very same sifu, as per his now fully serviced & calibrated crystal ball, the Real McCoy as far as the new Replacements for the year 2015 is concerned is actually the new RM20 ZC Replacements as this ZC seems to be a rather scarce note & could be that elusive shining star in this vast numismatic universe & perhaps a peer thru the numismatic telescope is totally superfluous & unnecessary to ascertain such bullish claims as after all, he is the sifu, the numismatic sifu & in him we should all trust......
